GIRLS

Sun Burst Brights Palette

Raspberry Punch plays with F/W 15/16’s Fuchsia while the saturated purple undertones callback to S/S 16’s Peony Pink.

Winter Potpourri Midtones Palette

Majestic Purple banishes the cooler, blue-based Sour Grape from S/S 16, turning instead to deep red undertones.

Rich Garnet elevates F/W 15/16’s Burgundy into a deep, rich hue with regal undertones.

Frost Bitten Neutrals Palette

Terracota. Maintaining the steady intensity of F/W 15/16’s Copper, Terracotta emerges with a strong orange undercurrent.

Frozen Peach transitions from the pink undertones of F/W 15/16’s Dusty Rose and S/S 16’s Sherbet Sway to a sweet, citrusy hue.

BOYS

Volt Brights Palette

Majestic Purple a saturated blue influenced bright.

Canyon Midtones Palette

Garnet elevates F/W 15/16’s Claret in brighter, more purple undertones.

Oxide. Industrial rust shades resurface for Fall/Winter 16/17 in red, brown and orange casts, creating a key color for twill pants and outerwear.

Spruce. A deeper, blue-infused green updates last Fall’s Bench Green for a wintry hue inspired by woodland environments.

Native Elements Neutrals Palette

Terracotta. An update from F/W 15/16’s Iron Oxide, Terracotta leans more toward orange than the previous red-based neutral.
